A naval game with a one-percent chance of hitting would take much longer to resolve a battle. Historical accuracy therefore competes with the pace expected from World of Warships. One participant still prefers realistic hit probabilities, while others place that preference in the realm of a simulator. Their disagreement concerns how much realism a playable battle should retain.
